I am having the same problem in Google Chrome. I can't compose or reply to emails while I am able to do these actions in Internet Explorer. Any suggestions?

I can sign out now. I am using the Firefox Disconnect add-on. If I unblock Yahoo analytic, then I do see the sign out feature in Firefox. It is interesting to me that I could sign out using the former Yahoo email if the Yahoo analytic was blocked.

Thanks for your reply, Rhonda. However, this did not work for me. I hovered over both the "hi" statement and the gear next to it. Neither action brought up the logout option.

I can log out of Yahoo Mail using FIrefox. Took a while for me to find the sign out option though: It is "hidden" on the top right when I hover over my "Hi, Rhonda" next to the gear and the house. I wish they would stop hiding things. LOL

I have this same problem with the new yahoo mail. There is no sigh out or log off option in Firefox 2013-06-15T09:03:35-07:00Dukesterhttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/947605?page=2#answer-445923

I have this same problem with the new yahoo mail. There is no sigh out or log off option in Firefox for the new Yahoo mail. However, there is this option in IE. I have multiple email accounts. Currently, the only way that I can get to different accounts if I am using Firefox, is to close the browser completely, then open it again and sign in to a different email account. However, in IE, I can simply sign out of the account (while leaving IE open) and then login to a new email account.

Please fix Firefox

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools &gt; Add-ons &gt; Extens2013-03-14T19:33:46-07:00cor-elhttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/947605#answer-417274

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools &amp;gt; Add-ons &amp;gt; Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools &amp;gt; Add-ons &amp;gt; Appearance).

Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

If it works in Safe mode or with all extensions (Tools &amp;gt; Add-ons &amp;gt; Extensions) disabled then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.

madperson, The "fix" was temporary. When I tried forwarding E-mails this morning I was unable to. Went through the "disable add ons" &amp;amp; "restart Firefox in safe mode" &amp;amp; it's working properly again. My question today is about Ghostery. I don't see that listed in my add ons list and I don't see any Ghostery Icon when I'm using Yahoo Mail. What does this Icon look like &amp;amp; where should I be looking for it? If I don't have Ghostery, is there any other permanent way to resolve the problem? Thanks.

The way I fixed it was close to, but not quite the same as madman advises. I wasn't in yahoomail at 2013-01-19T10:42:59-08:00relievedhttps://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/947605#answer-399577

The way I fixed it was close to, but not quite the same as madman advises. I wasn't in yahoomail at the time. What I did was

1. went to yahoo mail, and in the address bar, selected the URL up to and including ".com", but nothing after that

2. copied this selected part opf the URL to the windows clipboard by pressing control+ c

5. put my cursor in the "add new site" box and pasted the portion of the yahoo URL which was on the clipboard, by pressing control + v

6.clicked "save" at the bottom

After this yahoomail worked fine.

Thisis basically what madman said, just slighlty more explicit for newbies

If you do it this way, you get to use both yahoomail and ghostery. I certainly want to use ghostery while on yahoomail because yahoomail has a lot of tracking "bugs" which I want ghostery to block

This weas a really aggravating problem -- I was ready to defect to Chrome -- so thanks guys for ID-ing ghostery settings as the culprit

Mozilla team --I know you can't consider every combination of variables when you upgrade firefox; but given that yahoomail and ghostery are both very widely used, you really should test how they work before you release. Otherwise, less patient users night indeed dump you :-/

hey phillip, the addon should stay disabled after a restart.

however you also could reenable it again &amp;amp; just add an exception for yahoo mail: click on the ghostery icon while you're in yahoo's webmail, choose "edit blocking options" &amp;amp; then don't block on this domain...

Okay, I "disabled the ad ons", restarted Firefox in the safe mode, and my E-mail is now working properly once again! Thank you madperson &amp;amp; Rhonda for your responses and information. I am an amateur (as you can probably tell) and sincerely appreciate your help &amp;amp; assistance. Are there any negatives to my having "disabled the ad ons"? Will it affect any other computer operations, do I just continue using it as it is now, or will I need to perform any other future operations? Will I need to "disable the ad ons" each &amp;amp; every time I restart my computer? Thanks again, Phillip.

madperson, Thanks for the quick response. No, I do not have the "ghostery addon" that you mentioned. I have very minimal addons as I use my computer only for e-mailing &amp;amp; internet. This problem just appeared overnight for no apparent reason and I have tried emptying the cache, clearing cookies, checking that Javascript was enabled, etc. Nothing has solved the problem. I strongly prefer to use Firefox as my browser but may have switch back to IE as that is the only way I am able to send E-mails.
